Covers the main part of the Institute’s activity. All the research groups participate on its solution by the dominant parts of their activity. The aim is to contribute to the gradual deepening of understanding of the relation between microstructure in the bulk as well as at surfaces and interfaces on the one hand and properties on the other hand. On this basis it is possible to optimise both the microstructure and the properties and design completely new materials. In the concrete, the research is centred on ultrafine-grained materials, microcrystalline, nanocrystalline and amorphous materials, intermetallics, superalloy single crystals and polycrystals, advanced steels, advanced magnesium alloys, advanced iron and nickel alloys, shape memory alloys, composite and nanocomposite materials, metal laminates, lead-free solder materials, magnetic semiconductors and half-metallic magnets, magnetic multilayers and transition-metal silicides. The investigated physical properties include relevant mechanical properties (creep, fatigue, brittle fracture) and/or selected electrical and magnetic properties. |
